I have the Sprint Touch PRO;
I just ran/installed HardSPL, then attempted to install/flash a new ROM, Everything looked as though it was working correctly, but once the phones restarted, all it does now is look through the TOUCHpro screen.
Any suggestions?

You need to tell us carrier and what ROM you are reffering to? SOunds like a bad ROM to me. When I cook bricks that what happens to me. Tell us more and we will try to help. List carrier, radio, SPL version, and specific ROM.

Hey, first post here. I've tried searching for people with similar issues but I couldn't find anyone. I got my Cingular 8525 yesterday and I am trying to upgrade to WM6. I followed the guide on flashing it to Hard SPL v6, since I have SPL- 1.06 and I can't seem to get past the screen where I have to choose which bootloader version I have. Mine is not listed on there, and it won't even let me choose some of the other options. I can only check "Is this Hard-SPL?" and the "Force Ussing SPL" option. I thought about upgrading to SPL1.04 then to 1.4, but I am not sure as I don't want to brick my phone. Any suggestions? Thanks. Sorry if this has been covered once again, but Ive been looking for about 2 days and can't seem to find it.
Here is part of a guide written by Mrvanx. Following the guide is highly recommended. You should use the sspl option. It will load SSPL by Des which will in turn load Hard SPL V6 to your device. Good luck flashing!
The autodetect button didn't work for you??? You should be able to use the Force option to upgrade to oli's SPL and you should have no problem. If you're unsure, follow this guide: http://www.mrvanx.myzen.co.uk/hermes_guide/HardSPL.html
Also, there's lots of great info here in general: http://www.mrvanx.myzen.co.uk/hermes_guide/
Thank you. The version I was looking at www.mrvanx.myzen.co.uk/hermes_guide/black/HardSPL.html
told me something else. Thanks for your input. I'll flash it right away.

good stuff....what flavour of WM6 and which radio??
Newest Radio 138.00.10.. and of course I had to go with Black 2.0... Just the issue on roaming right now... came across it on here before, so i'll figure it out...
Okay.. well now I that it's all flashed i connected to the internet, but i can't send MMS. I tried putting back the factory settings listed here
https://www.cingular.com/support/setupOTW.do
but Black 2.0 doesn't seem to have a media net button and it won't send any mms.. any suggestions. I think I might have to downgrade back to WM5 get used to it and then possible come back to WM6... thanks.

Forget the settings on cingulars website, they assume you are running a cingular rom.
Search the wiki page and there will be a .cab file to install the settings.
Either that or enter them manually. There are plenty of users running Black 2.0 on cingular
no my phone wont reboot at atll it turns on goes to a screen that says htc smart mobilty test only not for sale and in red below that it says no radio and doesnt go any further!!!!
please help me like seriously its not even my phone i need to straighten it out for him asap!!!!! i will even pay if some one can help me
press the power + camera + reset, load in the rom and radio, no need to pay, we're here to help! What is ur bootloader anyway ? is it unlock, stock rom ???
is that it because its not working is there any other method of hard reset?
i tried the buttons its not getting to the boot loader like at all , its unlocked using the titan unlocker and its just not booting up to any thing just that screen and the rom was 2.17 orignally then i flashed it to dcd's newest rom 2.2.1... then i steped it down to dcd 2.20 then i tried to flash the sprint 3.16 recent rom update and it got stuck at boot loader which was the oli bootloader which i think its called and i had to use exit_hbl and now its stuck. it will reboot but i still get that screen i mentioned before
i got to boot loader its says
TITA100
SPL-1.20.olipro
no wonder, you didn't follow instruction carefully, when you press power + camera and press reset , it should take you to tricolor, at that you can reload your sprint stock rom. Your phone is not brick yet
i just PMed you with my paypal info. Ill make sure your phone makes it out ok
thanks but if anyone its astrqnusx hed get money first i flashed the rom again it worked and then i tried to flash the radio and it just restarts and doesnt load at all??? its stuck at the mobilty screen???
what radio and rom did you use? I assume that you have Titan(Mogul) not touch
and after the radio i tried to reload the rom and it acted as tho it would work and is now stuck at the mobilty and i used now dcds 1.6.8 rom and the 3.27 radio... and now its really stuck maybe i should try the stock rom for sprint?
you are too rush on thing, you can't use rom 1.6.8 with the new radio, reflash back with stock rom from your vendor to get working condition. There is specific instruction if you want to load the radio
After you get back to your vendor (sprint/verizon) follow this instruction to flash new rom, don't miss a step http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=17667. Again, I see you have the touch, touch and mogul are two different device you can't use DCD or any rom here. You have Titan Phone right?
-my touch is fine thats a custom flashed rom from swiftblade and it works amazing with a radio update ive done alot of different things even reg edits
but the titan is just new to me
Is your phone working yet?
yea i got it thanks!
I'm having the same issue, but I cannot get back to the tri color screen. Any advice? I thought I followed directions pretty well, but apparently not.

I had the same problem flashing my mogal, it's not difficult to fix. take a deep breath, it will take a little bit of work but you can do it. flash back to rom 2.17 relock, then flash sprint official rom 3.35. Then run hard spl 2.40 then flash new rom, take battery out, hard reset should fix your problem. the relocker,unlocker and everything else can be found by searching xda and ppcgeeks.com
I had the same issue, resolved:

Hey, I'm a long time spyer on these forums and am in a lot of trouble. I just got my Bell PPC-6800 replaced (bad keyboard), and absolutely been unable to put a custom ROM on the device. I have tried pretty much everything, using Titan Unlocker, Hard SPL, kitchens and generic ROMs, and the ONLY thing I can get working is the stock ROM again. I had no issues at all when doing the upgrade the first time with my original phone, but with this one I can't get it working.
Right now, it sticks at the Bell blue logo screen and in red where it normally has the version info it says "NO RADIO".
Please any help would be much appreciated!
im assuming you didnt miss the obvous step of flashing a compatible radio rom in addition to the roms you mentioned, right?
if not, see the sticky at the top of the forum.
Yes, I am a huge moron. I read through that exact sticky 2 or 3 times and just assumed that I did the radio flash.
Working now, thanks a lot for the help lol ... maybe I'll stick with spying
, I've been tryin to update my Mogul's ROM to the newest DCD ROM(3.2.6 i think) and I ran into some issues that I can't seem to find on the wiki. The first thing I did was upgrade the SPL using nueSPL-2.47 by putting onto a FAT32 Sd card(1gb). That worked out fine it looks like. When I go into the bootloader it says what it should.
So then I moved on to upgrading the radio ROM. For this I used Titan Radio ROM 3.42.50. Inside the RAR file it came in was TITAIMG.nbh. The wiki said thats what I need so I loaded that onto my Sd card and entered bootloader. It found it and asked me to press the power button and then did the update and said it was a sucess. From there... nothing happens. it stays at the gray screen. I figured I need to reset it myself so I pressed reset and now it hangs at the big yellow screen that says SPRINT and doesnt load into the OS.
The wiki says this is because I didn't load the right rom for my phone, but I'm almost positive this is the right radio for the mogul, no? I don't know what went wrong, so I'm at a complete loss.
Anyone have any ideas on how I'm messing this up?
you need to read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392133
your radio has to be matched with a compatible rom, since you're on radio 3.42.50, you need a gps/reva rom, any of the ones listed at the bottom.
you can flash a rom via microsd as well, but it wont load the stock os, which is what im assuming u are still on, with a newer radio.
good luck

You've mentioned installing an appropriate bootloader and radio for DCD's 3.2.6, but you have failed to state what OS ROM is loaded or if you did attempt to flash to 3.2.6.
Hmm.. Yeah I am still on the stock Os Rom. I didn't realize the newer radio would make it incompatible. I suppose the dumb mistakes are the easiest to make.
So now, I need to update the OS Rom and I should be fine. Only problem is... I can't figure out now how to update to dcd 3.2.6. I need to flash via the SD card but I can't find the .nbh file in the RUU directory. What else am I missing?
*edit* Figured all this out, see post below.
Okay... I spoke too soon, cause I'm not out of the woods yet. i upgraded the Rom and have it working on the phone. Cept', I guess my account is no longer tied to the phone anymore, cause I can't make calls or do anything related. Is the simple way to fix this just calling sprint up and just saying I want to switch my account over to this 'new' phone? I've done that plenty to switch back and forth between the two phones I own, but I'm wondering if there's something else wrong.
I did install the sprint carrier .cab, so I know that's not an issue.

don't tell them you want to switch or anything... Just tell them you hard reset your phone and now your having this problem.
depending on the issue.. I know with verizon I either cant make calls (needs an Akey reset) or I cant get data (needs a DMU reset). I just call them and tell them I performed a hard reset because I had an issue and now I need (one of those things) reset. I'm sure it's the same for you.. this will happen when going from non GPS to GPS radio.
i usually flash the rom first then the radio both from sd. plus i dont think the card can be a sdhc
I had Magloader and WP7 in it. As time went by I upgraded to HD7 and never looked back. It's been a while since I have touched XDA and WM6.5.
My assumption is that even with Magloader, you only have to flash your stock ROM and it'll revert back to WM.
Mine won't go on and I suspect that I flashed a Non-Tmobile compatible ROM. Can someone confirm that this is the case? Here's the ROM string: RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.0 7U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship.exe
I understand completely that if I messed it up then it's messed up. I just wanna make sure there might be other solutions or something I am missing out.
-Thanks in advance!
----------------------------------
Is this a final answer? I need to know if it's bricked and nothing else can be done.
Anyone thinks a shop may be able to recover it back? It won't go on at all..

Sometimes, it´s easier than you think.
You´ve got 2 options to get rid of HSPL. One of those options would be simply described in the original thread of HSPL.exe software. If you would have checked this program a little bit, you would have noticed the very fact that you can select what SPL or HSPL you want to install.
Second, you can flash your stock ROM via SD card method, this will replace HSLP and everything else - this does not work using RUU.exe via USB.

By the looks of the radio installed (2.04.50_22_2), I would say that you did brick your T-mobile phone. Take a look at the following thread for a possible solution to unbrick your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668347
Hi thanks for the response Lavell. Would MTTY be able to do anything?
The phone doesn't turn on at all, or it seems.
I've never bricked one before so Idk if this is the way it happens.
its gone. dead. it will need JTAGging or a new mainboard.
that thread wont help, the phone wont power on, and that thread requires you can get into bootloader.
that's a really early rom you used, the tmous didnt even exist when that rom shipped.
If you want to get rid of it let me know please!!!
Hey guys, don't mean to hijack the thread but I got the same problem here.
Had WP7 but could not use 2g so I went back to MAGLDR113 and installed the file below:
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship
It went all the way to 100% but now the phone is dead. Computer makes a sound when I plug in usb but I have tried changing batteries and all but it doesn't work.
Does anyone know in Dallas or areas around how to do that JTAG thing?
There is no proper documentation on how to go back to stock 6.5 Windows or at least I could not find one

At its most basic, its the same for ALL hd2's, ,
1 get the correct stock rom for your region&vendor
2 flash it
thats it.
Sadly lots of times this is shortened to
1 get stock rom
2 flash it
and people just assume they can use any stock rom, and since they usually already have HSPL installed, it allows the flash to start, and tmous phones die.
Yeh think the HSPL installer should of had a TMOUS version either blocking known bricking radio & ROMs or just an on screen message warrning & advising on checking before comencing with flash.
At end of the day it is the users fault for not researching or using a TMOUS rom to be 100% safer !
